South Africa-born all-rounder Grant Elliott is set to make his limited overs debut for New Zealand at Edgbaston here Wednesday after being included in the side announced on Tuesday for the second one-day international against England.

Elliott, who had been playing club cricket in Surrey, south-east England, was only called into the New Zealand squad on Monday as cover for fellow all-rounder Jacob Oram, currently sidelined with a hamstring injury.

A New Zealand spokesman confirmed Tuesday Elliott would replace struggling batsman James Marshall in the only change to the team thrashed by 114 runs in at Chester-le-Street on Sunday in the first of a five-match series.

Marshall's omission means Ross Taylor is in line to move up to No 3 in the batting order.

Elliott's only previous international appearance, which came as an injury replacement for Oram, was when he made his Test debut against England in Napier in March - a match where his one wicket cost 85 runs and where he scored just 10 runs in two innings

Born in Johannesburg, Elliott, now 29, left South Africa in 2001 and completed his residency qualification for New Zealand six months before making his Test debut in a match England won by 121 runs to seal a 2-0 series victory.

New Zealand have yet to win a major international match on their current tour of England.

They lost a three-match Test series 2-0 and were beaten by nine wickets in the lone Twenty20 international at Old Trafford on Friday before being routed at the Riverside last weekend.

England are likely to field an unchanged team.

New Zealand team to play England in 2nd ODI at Edgbaston on Wednesday:

New Zealand captain Daniel Vettori challenged his side to go on and win the Champions Trophy tournament later this year after they sealed a 3-1 one-day series victory against England here at Lord's.
The Black Caps, five times World Cup semi-finalists without ever reaching the final itself, last won a major international one-day tournament when triumphing in the 2000 Champions Trophy, 'the mini World Cup', in Kenya.

LONDON (Reuters) - Stand-in captain Kevin Pietersen on Saturday blamed England's batsmen for their 3-1 defeat to New Zealand in the one-day series, which ended with a meek 51-run loss in the fifth match at Lord's on Saturday.
England, who won the test series convincingly 2-0, started the one-day matches strongly with a 114-run victory when Pietersen scored a match-winning century and grabbed the headlines with his unique switch-hitting.

Shane Warne said Paul Collingwood would be known as the man who "did not show the right sportsmanship" after his failure to withdraw a run-out appeal against New Zealand.
England one-day captain Collingwood's decision to persist with an appeal against Grant Elliott, following the New Zealand all-rounder's failure to make his ground after being knocked over accidentally by bowler Ryan Sidebottom, sparked an angry response from the furious Black Caps.

Geoff Miller, England's national selector, said Friday there was no reason why Paul Collingwood should not return as captain of the England one-day team after his four-game ban.
That International Cricket Council (ICC) suspension, for being in charge of an England team that was twice slow with its over-rate during the past 12 months, starts with Saturday's ODI series finale against New Zealand at Lord's.
